If you're in the USA and you like Kei trucks, just own up to being a weeb and you wanna fly your freak flag. Nobody in this modern age will care anymore

But these arent practical or worth importing to the USA for actual use. Unsafe, uncomfortable, cant tow hardly anything.

"Muh farm/site use" bro just get a golf cart with a bed, or a John Deere Gator. The parts and serviceability are much more readily available

"Muh bed size" get used base model Ford Ranger, or an old minivan and take the seats out if cargo space is what you need

"Muh city car" bro if you live in a city, you probably have better public transport so just use that. If not, just buy a subcompact car for less than 2k

"Muh dump bed" bro WHAT

Are you sure? Yen has dropped over 50% in value in just two or so years. What got you a 10K car before now gets you 15K car just because of simple currency devaluation.

They've been in the US forever and are cheaper and better than similar side-by-sides

Kei trucks would be epic if they put a diesel v8, beef up the suspension and frame, add 4x4 models, make the bed deeper with optional choice of longer all of this for under 40k would be a hit in the states
>>
>>27633660
just say you're mad at weebs while posting on an anime site bro. It's literally just way cheaper to buy one than the cheapest possible polaris. Nevermind if you want a/c or the other amenities of a normal vehicle
>>
>>27633722
basically every kei van/truck from the last 30 years has had optional 4WD

That's not fitting under the bed.

Bahahahahahahahahahaha!

Bro the kei trucks brought to the USA are 25+ years old. A used Polaris that's only like 5 years old is still cheaper

kei trucks are already 4x4, but in case you've been living under a rock, we already have that and they're used in fleets across the country

side by sides aren't street legal in most states.

OP here

That's why I specifically mentioned construction sites and farms
>>
>>27633660
fuck off divide and conquer /n/igger. kei trucks are based. regular trucks are based. more competition leads to better products. the only reason we have such shit regulations is because there are too few manufacturers as is. more options, more competition. fuck off

Reddit spacing so opinion discarded. Here's mine, fight me.

I never posted on reddit. I tried once, but I couldn't figure out how that place worked

Does this make you feel better?

Better. What your post misses is how convenient Japanese mini trucks are. Sold my American pickup after owning this awhile. Loading and loading is much easier with the drop sides and the height of the bed. The first one of these I owned was used by my local city council, who towed a 7x5 trailer with a zero steer mower everyday and racks of hand tools behind the cab. Fell in love with that truck as I looked at it from my workplace.

Yeah, you obviously didn’t need a truck, you don’t even get it dirty or scratched

I can buy a Honda Acty for like $8k right now, there's a lot 5-10 minutes away that imports them.
>>
I was gonna buy one off a guy because it would make for a nice truck to move my product in and wrap in my company logo but apparently a bunch of money launderers at the AAMVA didn't like that

the ban on imported cars has been ridiculous for decades anyway, it's insane to me how cut-and-dry anti-citizenry most /o/ laws are.

Maybe I'll get the kei truck and register it as a motorcycle.

You're such a retard. The thing that blew up their popularity is farm use not weebs.

They're superior to a side-by-side for a fraction of the price.
